Played the demo for a few rounds, I enjoyed the flying element (though the mouse flying control was pretty avg by default) some of the Javelin / weapon designs / customization options were nice , but found it pretty boring apart from that, had some display bugs, bugged out instances and connection drops which did not help either, don't think I want anymore of it.

At least in this regard, they kinda shot themselves in the foot with the month long IGN exclusivity content. I wonder how Anthem would have fared in an alternate timeline where Bioware had been able to keep a better lid on it and just dropped it on em ala Apex Legends.

oh they did an IGN month thingy. didn't know about that. guess since i pay no attention to IGN thats to be expected.

I fail to understand how these game journalists who are mostly terrible at games manage to finish games to write reviews

Either they donít finish games or they are given cheats or easier version of the game

You write some of the most moronic shit based off the flimsiest of evidence and lack the common sense to actually see the truth. I'll explain this to you in a way you will maybe understand.
There have been a handful of embarrassingly awful examples of inept skill from a handful of reviewers. There are literally hundreds and hundreds of professional, and semi-professional game reviewers. Most and by most I mean the vast majority of games journalists are gamers. Who's skill covers the range of "actual" gamers.
And even if someone is bad at a game that is still a valid opinion. I am awful at some games but can see how good they are, and have fun playing them. Fighters being one. I love MK, SF, SC and a lot more. I am at best OK at a few of them and bad at others. My opinion on those games is just as valid as anyone elses, as long as people know where my skill level is they can use that information to see if my opinion is of value to them. You dont need to be good at a game to have fun playing it, or appreciate its quality.

Now as to your assertion about reviewers not finishing the game. Care to back that up with anything? Or is it just most bullshit you've invented? But maybe there are some who do not complete the game. Do you need to complete a game to review it? I would say that you need to play enough to get enough information to deliver an informed opinion and that may not mean completing the game.
Given cheats or "easier" versions. **** off! Being provided tips and walkthroughs is not unheard of, but their use is limited and the amount of time they even provided is minute. People who take the time to review games for the most part care about the quality of the content they provide. Integrity is important as is trust. A lazy, bad, or incompetent reviewer will not survive as one. But a shit-poster can post shit ad nauseam as you have proven time and time again.

The vast majority of game reviews are written by gamers who have played the game to completion (or near to). Are about as competent as gamers more or less. Some much more, so less so (for certain genres/titles). mostly though we care about games, gamers, and providing a useful tool to help others make an informed choice with their time and money. Shit-talking anonymous forum shit-posters can hide behind a screen name, reviewers for the most part have their name on everything they write and are publicly available to anyone to read. There is no hiding, there is no making shit up, or if their is there is no hiding from that either.

I really do not know if you make this shit up, or if you just latch on to the first bit of crap you see and assume that as the truth. In either case it's garbage and you need to stop spreading it around. But for everyone's sake use your brain before writing some fictitious garbage, or making sweeping generalisations.

I've flip flopped plenty in my decision to get it or not, probably will, coz looks enjoyable at least until Division 2 comes out. I just want hope the weapons get a little more 'oomph'. But I'm looking forward to the abilities and combos.

Yeah I played all four and enjoyed each of them in their own way. The world felt a bit empty when free roaming, no waypoints sucked, and the loading screen bug was a pain. Only thing holding me back from a preorder is the small gap in time between Anthem day 1 and Div 2 release.
